OPINION
JACKSON, Judge:
Lewis Ricky Yates appeals his sentence for theft, a class A misdemeanor, in violation of Utah Code Ann. § 76-6-404 (1995). Specifically, Yates challenges the classification of his offense as a class A misdemeanor, arguing he is entitled to a lesser punishment afforded by the amended statute that became effective between his plea agreement and sentencing. We reverse and remand.
